New Church In Offing For Biddeford Parish
Christ Church on Crescent Street plans to sell its 69 year old brick church and adjoining rectory as the Episcopal parish seeks a smaller, second site for a new congregation. Rev Edward Greene says the parish will not disband and plans a future move to simpler quarters, possibly half the size, with a new church built at an as yet undecided location. The parish draws from Biddeford, Saco, Arundel, Lyman and the Kennebunks and currently has 65 communicants, remaining financially sound.
